love knows no gender.

It has always been a hazy idea for me how two guys can fall in love and be in a relationship. I have nothing against gays, I have a lot of friends who are gays, but I really dont have any idea how the guy-guy or even girl-girl relationship thing works. I have a lot of friends who have been into deep and lasting relationships with the same gender; and the media also has its fair share of personalities who can attest to how these kinds of relationships are really possible.

But only tonight, after watching Maalala Mo Kaya for its Aids Awareness Day Episode that it actually dawned on me how it's not about who are in a relationship with whom or what kind of gender is involved. It all, as always, boils down to love. and the MMK story, has so much love involved that it got me really crying and heart broken. how such selfless and unconditional love can exist, without any boundaries, without any bias or prejudice.

It would have been a great great world if people can love whoever they want to love. If they can show to the world who they love and be given the chance to be proud of who they are with. It would have been a happy world when people dont judge other people because of their preference. It would have been a nice world if all these kinds of love exist and is let to exist.

Tonight, i remembered our social science 3 class in college, about gender and sexuality. A class that I enjoyed taking during my third year, and a class where I actually learned a lot. For our culminating project, we were asked to design a shirt about the subject. I submitted two designs, one was the different phases in sex designed as a race track, which was what i actually submitted in the end. and the second design were stick figures of different genders together bound by heart symbolizing relationships with the tagline as: 'Love Knows No Gender".

I only made it then as a requirement, only now did I realize its real meaning.

Love is an amazing gift. It's a blessing that should be shared. everyone deserves love :)

and things will start to change..

to start it all: my hair! haha. it's short now. like kindergarten short. haha. i like it. and i wanted to have my hair cut since summer, but because of grad pictorials, i need to postpone it. and grad pictorials are done - and i don't want to postpone it any longer. haha. so i had my hair cut yesterday afternoon after watching the Agnes of God play with my brother. (i have no decent pictures yet so you need to see me personally if you want to see it. i feel weird. i think it looks weird. haha.) and so everything follows. *** change is something inevitable. a natural phenomenon that would definitely happen in one way or another. we can't stop it (i think) but we can postpone it and i think i've postponed "that" inevitable change for too long now, and I have no other choice but to let it happen. i've already felt the urge to remove that something from my system at the start of the sem (as the change im talking about). well, i knew i need to deal wi...

a sad day.

i was a messenger last tuesday for my mom. she asked me to whisper a message to my tita. and just this afternoon, while i was in the lab for thesis, my mother texted me that tita lita is gone. it was quite expected, since this has been her third time in the past 3 months to be hospitalized. her third time that transfusion is needed. and of the three times, maybe this was the worst. *** she has given a lot to others. to her parents, her siblings and to us, her nephews and nieces. i was able to live with her for three years during high school and i have a lot of things to thank her for. I'm not that sure if she knows how grateful i am that i was able to stay with her during those times. looking back i would not have chosen any other place to stay for high school apart from hers. no matter how far paranaque may be in manila. i would never forget the mornings where she would wake up early too since i need to be at school early and she would stay late in pnu since our classe...
